When the Bank Statement Transaction records or data of a valid imported bank statement or downloaded bank statement file is saved in the XML Datapacket (*XML) file format, you may access the file by locating it in the specific location and file name where you have saved this file on your system.

To Access the XML File:
Locate the file on your system. You may use the Windows Explorer .
Double-click on the icon with the name you have saved the specific data for the saved bank statement file. The selected file will be displayed.

 

The XML File consists of 2 sections, i.e. Meta Data and finally the Row Data section.

• The Meta Data section contains the basic information of the field attribute names and parameter names. This is the information, which you will find as the headings in the first row of the Lotus Spreadsheet.
  
  
• The Row Data section contains the basic information of the transaction data, e.g. transaction ID, dates, descriptions, amounts, etc. This is the information, which you will find in the 2^nd row onwards below the headings in the Lotus Spreadsheet file.

If the correct dates are not displayed for the bank statement transactions, you need to select the correct dates when you save the bank statement transactions as a file. It is important to select the correct dates to include transactions (the dates must correspond with those dates for which you need to do the bank reconciliation).
